Carrie Mulista tried to find the machine with PCR, the company he worked for sold its license for $10000 for $300 million ..but he couldn't find it.
What is this PCR test?
The PCR swab test is the standard diagnostic method for HIV. This involves the amplification of genetic material using substances. PCR stands for Polymerase Chain Reaction.

The samples you receive must go through lab steps to determine whether.
A swab is inserted from the mouth or throat, and the samples should be sent to the laboratory for PCR testing within 48 hours.
Those laboratories are not the usual ones seen today, the laboratory with expert technicians and scientists.
Others that use the PCR test
A PCR test is used to make a large amount of a small DNA sample.
This test is used in court to identify science criminals and in other cases.
Apart from this, this test is also used to identify anyone to identify a person's parents.

Carrie Mullis
Cary Inks Mullis (December 28, 1944 – August 7, 2019) was an American representative chemist. He shared the 1993 Nobel Prize in Chemistry with Michael Smith for the discovery of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technology, and was also awarded the Japan Prize in the same year. His discovery became a central technology in biological biology and molecular biology, which the New York Times described as "dividing biology into the PCR and pre-PCR eras."

PCR was born in the mind of Kari Mullis on a moonlit night in Northern California in 1983. Mullis was wondering about the accuracy of DNA replication as he hiked up the mountain, and the method of touching it occurred to him. He happily explained his idea to his girlfriend and then went home to think it over. "I found it difficult to sleep," he wrote much later.
The idea behind PCR was so simple that it was hard to convince the Cetus Corporation higher-ups that he was up to something. The next year, he used the technique to describe a well-studied gene. In 1985, Mullis published the landmark (improvement of cell output mutations) and filed a patent, launching the field of DNA amplification. He received a $10,000 bonus for his discovery and sold the company to another company for $300 million. However, Mullis won the Nobel Prize in 1993. "
In the 1980s, PCR was often unable to predict victims of the 9/11 terrorist attacks and other mass acts and natural disasters. Able to be produced for forensic diagnosis.
The discovery of PCR came after Sir Alec Jeffries introduced information about the first DNA sequence. PCR DNA profiles are provided in small forensic samples that are missing. The technique was popularized when Law and Order: SVU was coined by Olivia Benson and company.
Mullis was born on December 28, 1944 in Lenoir, North Carolina, near the Blue Ridge Mountains. His family has a farming background in this rural area. Muli Kudus says he likes the look of the surrounding countryside. He grew up in Columbia, South Carolina and attended Dreher High School, graduating with the class of 1962. He became interested in chemistry when he learned to chemically synthesize and build advanced solid-fuel propulsion rockets.
He received his BS in Chemistry from the Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta in 1966, during which time he married his first wife and started a business. He holds a Ph.D. in medicinal chemistry at the University of California, Berkeley, in 1973, where JB Neilands laboratory focused on the synthesis and structure of iron transport molecules. [Although he published a single-authored paper in Nature on astronomy in 1968, he struggled to pass his oral exams (a colleague “got his proposal right
